How to Answer the Question "Why Should We Hire You?"

That's a great question. It's really the reason we're here today, isn't it? You're going to be looking at each interview, I imagine, as a way to determine which candidate 'gets' your situation the best. You're going to be looking for fit, an intangible thing. I'm doing the same thing, of course. I'm looking at the same fit from my perspective.


Taking your question literally, I can't say you should hire me over another candidate, because I don't know enough yet about exactly what you need and how you work here, and needless to say, I won't have the opportunity to meet the other candidates. I have total confidence in you, me and the universe to guide all of us to the right answer.
